An Old Classic - Pear & Gorgonzola Pizza

I'm bringing you back to a John and Elana classic: The Pear and Gorgonzola Pizza. It's unbelievable, but I've never posted the recipe for this particular pizza on our blog.

I have no excuses. It's just mean of me to leave you out of the loop. I apologize. Please forgive me?

To be fair, you could have gotten the recipe from our Top Your Pizza Book. Aaaaand speaking of books, I'm working on a new one. This recipe will be in the new pizza book as well, as it's such a good one it deserves repeating.

So, I'm taking the time to post a few of the photos of this pie that I'm NOT using in the new book and giving you a little preview in the form of this recipe.

And if you needed reasons to make this pizza, here they are:

Sweet. Powerful. Innovative. Who says fruit doesn’t belong on pizza? It does when when you’re craving that sweet-meets-savory flavor combination, which is precisely what this pie is. You’ll dig the candy-like transformation of your oven-crusted pears, particularly when they’re contrasted with some tangy, oozing Gorgonzola. Serve and impress – yourself.
